From 2e9abbc942e6211f9ac4dadb14debc39bb9d1418 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Srinath Sridharan Date: Thu, 14 Jul 2016 09:57:29 +0100 Subject: sched: EAS: take cstate into account when selecting idle core Introduce a new sysctl for this option, 'sched_cstate_aware'. When this is enabled, select_idle_sibling in CFS is modified to choose the idle CPU in the sibling group which has the lowest idle state index - idle state indexes are assumed to increase as sleep depth and hence wakeup latency increase. In this way, we attempt to minimise wakeup latency when an idle CPU is required.
